Confusion over standard power on import wagons
I've read on here that the standard WRX JDM ver 3/4 WAGONS have 215bhp, and have also seen that the standard JDM WRX STI of the same age has 280bhp?
Thats a 65bhp difference from WRX 1997 wagons to WRX STI 1997 wagons...is this discrepancy accurate? What differences do the 1997 ver4 WRX STI Wagons have with compared to standard WRX wagons to account for such a huge difference?
Which is correct?

sti's have a higher power output due to a different turbo and stronger internals (amongst other sti upgrades), to support that power hike.

If everything goes to plan with my car at the moment, I'll see what the power is when I get an Apexi Power FC and remap.
